“A sinoptophore is a device of high accuracy, our hospital still uses a device being in use for over 20 years. It has been repaired numerous times, but its life service has been expired away back, – comments Vadim Kutovyiy, Pediatric Ophthalmologist. The device is absolutely essential, but expensive, it costs more than UAH 50 thous. Help of CENTRAVIS Charity Foundation to our medical intuitions is invaluable”.

The violation of the child’s eyes position is not just a cosmetic defect, but a serious medical problem, as this defect can lead to the loss of the ability to see with both eyes at once.
